Diggin this video. Can you get 1 Million on easy mode?

When I was a kid I picked map 61 and designed what I thought was a perfect city..........It wouldn't go above 390,000. Just stuck. Eventually I realized my industrial zone across the river was inefficient and wasting a ton of space. I paused the game and bulldozed the entire industrial zone and rebuilt it. I lost 150,000 residents from doing that....but they started coming back. Then the population finally hit 400,000......then 450,000..............then I saw it hit 500,000, YES I literally jumped out of my gaming chair and started yelling. I was so happy.

This video is awesome.

its one of my favorite feelings to find a 15 year old video on a 30 y/o game that's exactly what I need in the present. Info conveyed efficiently in a relaxing and humorous way. Its funny to say this about youtube videos but they lowkey dont often make em like they used to :')

Some game changers here for me. The no roads only rail explains a heck of a lot about what I was experiencing! Also, I was doing the "donut" method and also had the roads going everywhere around everything as well. Replacing the hospitals and schools is a top tier tip. And it's extremely helpful to know the 2-1-1 rule. That really tightens things up a lot. And only needing one single fire station is an eye-opener. I'm definitely gonna play around with these tips! The highest population I've ever achieved is over 200k previously.

i wish i can created a youtube channel earlier.

U the man. How do I get thar Mario statue.

wow its so simple ... why did i make it so complicated? because my imagination LoL

Are there any newer games that are similar to the SNES Simcity? I find that the newer versions of Simcity became too complicated. I’m looking to relax, not actually run a city.

Watching this in 2024. Thank you.

You are so adorable Andrew!

Thank you, man. Im trying to learn to be successful in this game. I want to start a long lasting campaign on my SNES Classic.

14 years later, do you still like it?

So what is that helicopter icon for?

There is technically a money exploit without cheating. Residentials will accept 20% taxes and build white houses if you build them by water and provide some park if necessary if they wont develop. NO ROADS NECESSARY. At 20% even the white houses can provide insane income to get you started.

The fastest way to get there that I remember was building donut blocks. A total of 8 buildings of the same type; 3 on the top and bottom and 1 on each side with an empty space in the middle; just like a square donut. I'd then fill the empty space in the middle up with a special attraction or park land

Hey man! Today I got my first Megalopolis! Got 521k and counting! Thanks for your guide! The one tip I got from you was that the pollution does not mean crap. So I went ahead and built it two columns down, and then ignored the pollution. And holy shit... I'm glad I did. The good thing is now that I got the Mario statue, but the bad thing is that I have potential 500.000+ cancer patients and since I demolished hospitals to get even more people in, they are out of luck! But thanks a million. Can finally (after 25 years) put this game to rest.

Sorry, I'm also late to the party - got stuck in traffic! I will try the layout design you have! Some of the maps I've seen have been totally maxed out with R's in order to reach the 500k. However, it looks like you can do it with parks e.g. too and some left overs. Very interesting! Thanks man

Wait, so.... you don't actually have to fix crime?

lol nuclear meltdowns are common in that game.

Honestly i like map 12.

4:04 are you saying that i can build industrial zones everywhere?

Yes you can get a random tornado from destroying hospitals in snes simcity, but it is very rare and you must destroy a large number of them consecutively. If you destroy them one by one as they pop up it wont occur.

Andrew i challenge you to build a city that makes money off of crime like the mafia in New york

Thanks for this video in 2022. Lmao

theres something called debug mode and you can delete water

Big Megalo in 2339!

Great movie. Ooooooohhh. Burn.

Ah, the definitive SimCity version. The SNES version was far superior to the PC. I imagine the soundtrack of each city level is burned into your brain as well.

Wow, this video was uploaded 13 years ago. I wonder if AS Andrew is still alive? A lot can happen in 13 years. I remember the scenarios in the SNES Sim City were a lot of fun. Great game overall.

Thank you so much for this video! I just built 2 Megalopolis on different maps using your strategy! This was my favorite game on SNES as a kid! Thank you for helping me complete my youth Haha! 😁

Thanks for the tip. I had a nuclear meltdown on my original city in 1992. 30 human years later. Still dealing with it 😂

in my experience you dont need policestations, I get to 500.000 on map 61 without building 1 policestation. I think they have no real influence.

I had several strategies for playing Sim City. Seeing what you are doing with the residential alternating with park area is interesting.

funny I tend to use map 138.

I thought it would be a good film to show to film class, I want to know how much did they spend on it? I think they made it to show outside the USA 🇺🇸

Where did you go???

Snes emulators on Android has taken me back to my childhood. Playing this on my phone along with super metroid

My brother reminded me that this game exists and I have been glued to it. It was the first ever game I had an obsession with before even owning it. It was also the last one lol. I wish I could find this on an SNES classic or on the Switch

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for.

Cool.

2021. Still holds up.

i got this recomended ill watch it later but it seems interesting

Hey I have a question. Why have roads at all then?

My husband got this game on somehow on our PC and it brought back so much nostalgia. I am trying to figure it out and your video is definitely going to help I think

Build the donut.. it is the most efficient way to produce the largest buildings.

I was digging around and found this game, where was this when all this iso began lol didn't have youtube back in the day so this is a huge help, thx

Note: Schools and hospitals do have some benefit. Once you get a good number of schools, you'll get a present building (I think it's a zoo), for hospitals it's casinos. Also, they don't have zero sims in them, but it's so low that demolishing them makes sense

Sweet

Haha thanks! Some of these things I would never have figured out.
